Remi Garde - Departs Aston Villa

[Clampy]

LTA, you asked for stats and you got it. You're in denial. You've also just pointed out we have no goal threat and despite that our points per game has improved. Nobody is high fiving each other but there has been undeniable improvement. The only person that doesn't want to accept it is you it appears.

He has a point about the goal threat but to say we haven't improved is just nonsense.

The reality is that the league table and results don't lie - we have not improved since he arrived

You're right, results don't lie.

Sherwood sacked on Oct 25th: P10 W1 D1 L8 = 4 points = 0.4 points per match

Garde's regime: P12 W1 D6 L5 = 9 points = 0.75 points per match

So, having said yourself that results don't lie, I take it you accept he has improved us given the stats above?

No.

We carry no goal threat whatsoever.  We need to score goals and win games, but nobody at the club seems to doing anything about it.

Garde is clearly a decent guy, but anyone saying we've improved since he arrived is deluded IMO.

Are you on a wind up?

Same boring posters bullying someone with a different view point..

Or are they just disagreeing with their point of view?

some very fine margins with those stats which equate to 0.35 points per game.
a tiny improvement granted, but you could apply plenty of correction factors to maybe get the stats to show it going in the opposite direction,home/away,opposition etc but I cant be arsed. I do like remi though

Thats pretty much what I thought. I like Garde as well but unless there is a substantial improvement soon the outcome in May will be the same as if Sherwood had been allowed to continue.

We've lost 5 of our last 11 games. Considering the utter shambles we were before Garde arrived I don't see how there can be any doubt that we've improved. Whether we're improving enough is a very different debate.

[Legion]

We're a lot less shit than we were under Sherwood this season.

In the interest of balance, it's usually the same few deadheads that post something controversial and then can't back it up with either evidence or wit.

And then when challenged, drop into passive aggressive mode.

In my opinion, of course.

[PeterWithesShin]

How about saying posters instead of deadheads which isn't acceptable.

You said results don't lie, he hasn't improved us. Thats your opinion.

I've just pointed out that the results *have* improved - that's not an opinion, that is a mathematical fact.

But still you're not having it?

Do you stop and think about any of this stuff before you post it?

Well, 0.4 to 0.75 - that's almost double the points rate.

No, they haven't improved enough to substantially change things but they have improved. There's no arguing with that.

that's just stating the obvious though Clamps. We've actually managed to improve despite not having any goal threat because he's come in and really tightened us up at the back. I just wish we were 6 or 7 points better off because we'd have landed the striker we need by now. Being so far behind in points to safety has screwed everything up this transfer window. And we all know if it passes without us getting a new forward in the combination of Kozak, Ayew, Sinclair isn't going to save us. And with Gestede hurt, it's even more bleak. But we've improved overall and to deny it is ludicrous.

How is it?

It's not like we don't have enough things to worry about but if someone says "results don't lie" and then changes his tune when shown that the results actually have improved, then they can expect to be picked up on it.
